Why has the line between flaming and pointing out why the team is losing completely dissipated? It's actually vile. I have never played a game with such a safe-zone mentality in my entire life. If you're so damn sensitive and thin skinned, /mute all. It's that easy. Slurs and name calling are one thing, but "we can't 2v2 anymore, please stop going in" is not fucking flaming. It's like anything but "GJ GUYS, BUKKAKE ME AFTER THE GAME <3 oWo" will get you perma banned. And any kind of complaint against this insanity on the boards will receive you being labelled and ganged up on by the multitudes of people who label you as toxic and a flamer without even listening to you, because it is easier to ignore conflicting opinions than it is to actually think about it.

I understand that Riot Games HQ is located in California, so opinions against the majority are not allowed and are censored in the name of "protecting feelings", but seriously. North America will NEVER even have a shot at winning ANYTHING with players gathered from solo queue, when half of the players are perma'd or stuck in an account ban/buy cycle. And guess what?

The people that "flame", care about the game. They want to win. But since Americans cannot take even the slightest grain of criticism without taking it as a deep personal attack, and also feel the need to press this sad weakness onto the EU server, they will never be given the light of day. If you think your favorite Korean players that will continue to utterly sweep NA and EU every single year have never been critical of their teammates openly, then you're completely mistaken.

Before you skip over my entire post, tell me my point is invalid because of my account level, and resort to the very name calling you seem to despise, actually think about it.

And if you get butthurt and respond in a butthurt manner, you will have done nothing but proven my point. Incapable of proper discourse and conversation, resorting to pathetic attacks, refusing to accept the criticism of the whole and taking it personally.

Is not flaming and you won't get punished for saying it. If you're getting punished then you're obviously typing something worse. If people are complaining about constructive advice then that's their problem.

That said, if they're obviously not going to take your advice then stop giving it - it's pointless to continue and is just going to annoy people.

Flaming and point out why you're losing are only different when you choose to express it toxicly or not.

"Our bottom fed the enemy ADC. Bottom is the reason we're losing" vs "Enemy ADC needs to be focused or he/she is going to wreck us in fights"

Both talk about how the enemy ADC is a problem. One is a lot nicer than the other.

If you think you were punished because you said "we can't 2v2 anymore" then you are sorely mistaken.

Maybe you should post your chat logs so we can help you figure out what you said that Riot considered punishable.
